Flexmeter Wrist Guards are tested and proven to reduce snowboard wrist injuries by 67 to 85%.

The Flexmeter All Season Wrist Guard has the signature flexible Flexmeter splint, found on the dorsal (knuckle) side of the hand to prevent hyperflexion and a light flexible palm-side guard molded in a curved shape with air space over the palm for added impact protection on hard surfaces.

There is a small removable triangular shaped "puck" or slide guard which you can see in the photo at left. Use the slide guard when wearing the Flexmeter without gloves. Take it off when you wear gloves.

You will need a glove or mitten with an opening wide enough to pull over the wrist guard. We have some available, message me.

I am the original distributor of the wrist guards and gloves designed for snowboard protection by French ski orthopedist Dr. Marc-Herve Binet, and I distributed them from 2003 for 10 or more years until the company was sold to Demon. I am also the distributor of Booty Guard Tailbone Protectors for snowboarding, designed and sold by snowboarders. I wear it every time I ride!

This is called Flexmeter Double Protection on the German site, and Flexmeter Wrist Guards Plus on the UK site. The brand name on the product is now Doc.Meter or Demon. Flexmeter All Season Dobule Splint Wrist Guard is sold in pairs and has the signature flexible Flexmeter splint, found on the dorsal (knuckle) side of the hand to prevent hyperflexion and a light flexible palm-side guard molded in a curved shape with air space over the palm for added impact protection on hard surfaces.

I am also the sole distributor of Booty Guard Tailbone Protectors for snowboarding, designed and sold by snowboarders. I wear it every time I ride! Available here and on another big online marketplace.

For Kids: Please note that the small wrist guard is very small, great for kids.

Explanation of the Measurements Above:

Thumb Web to Middle Wrist Flexline of wrist guard Measurement
Use a tape measure and start it at the edge of the skin between your thumb and first finger. Then measure straight down to the bend in your wrist.

Maximum Wrist Strap Length Measurement
(For people with BIG hands) – Put your hand flat on a table, fingers and thumb all close together. Measure your hand from the base of the pinkie finger at it’s widest, all the way around. This measurement must be smaller than the Maximum Wrist Strap Length for the wrist guard to slip over your hand easily.

Length of Hytrel Splint Measurement – the Hytrel splint goes on the BACK of your wrist to slow down the impact of a fall on the snow, much like a seatbelt in a car. The top of the splint sits at the base of your fingers. This measurement tells you how far down your arm the splint will end.
